I've been meaning to share a few pictures of my tangerine leopard gecko.
Since I got her as a hatchling, she's a lot more tame than the other two I adopted as adults. Admittedly, she's also my favorite gecko.



Because she's so tame, she rarely ever uses her hides... prefering instead to sleep on the rock at the from of her cage.

...I guess she was comfy


Letting her walk around on my lap a little





A cute closeup of her face.


She's came a long way from this

the starving little hatchling I couldn't resist at Petco.

Now she's over 9 inches long, 68g, and eats 3-5 medium sized superworms nearly every day.

I know how to tell male from female in Water Dragons and Iguana's it's pretty obvious but how do you tell in geckos?

The same way, by the presents or lack of femoral pores and hemi-penis bulges.

It's fairly common.

Because of the species popularity as pets, there are a lot of different color morphs of leopard geckos.

I'm horrible at naming my pets, no creativity what so ever in that area. As a result.. I've not really settled on a name for her.

Insects.
Crickets, mealworms, and superworms are the most common feeder insects, mostly because they're usually in stock at pet stores.
